My mum has been at Carrington Court Care Home since October 2022. I cannot fault her care. She is treated with friendliness and dignity by all of the staff who create a lovely and lively atmosphere within the home. The staff are so friendly and chat to relatives as if they are friends. The home is lovely
and clean and warm and I know that my mum really enjoys her food provided. Thanks for all you do in what is a difficult time for our family.

My dad is a resident here, the staff are caring, compassionate, engaging and overall dedicated to providing the best care and treatment to their residents. I understand the entertainment they provide has halted due to the Covid-19 pandemic, but here they try their best to provide activities and regular
games, with the odd karaoke from the team.

My husband has recently moved into Carrington Court Care Home from a neuro rehab unit and I cannot tell you the difference it has made to him and our family, he is so much more relaxed showing no signs of agitation as he did before and the staff are amazing, keeping us informed with everything that
is happening regarding his treatment and rehabilitation, they have sorted out more for him in three weeks than he's had in eighteen months at the previous place. I originally did not want to put my husband in a nursing home and resisted for a while but I only wish I had known about Carrington Court sooner, it makes such a difference to all of us to know he is being well looked after, the staff have all been amazing and nothing is too much trouble for any of them, I am so grateful to them all for the care, respect and dignity they give him. I would recommend Carrington Court to anyone looking for a care home for a loved one.

He didn’t want to go into a care home because of a terrible experience having respite care elsewhere. I cannot speak highly enough of the care my dad received in his final weeks. I was kept so well informed of what was going on and the girls gave as good as they got with him and (with one or two awkward
exceptions) could not do enough for him or be kinder to us as a family. I am so grateful, especially to those he considered his favourites - you know who you are - it is a comfort to know he was treated with respect until the very end. Thank you so much, this could have been so much harder without you.

Carrington Court Care Home have been amazing in caring for my mum. They have treated her with dignity in her last few weeks of life. They kept her clean and have been fantastic with her. They have offered support to me and my family during this difficult time. I am incredibly grateful for the outstanding
care they have provided to my mum and us as a family. They have allowed my mum to die peacefully and with dignity. Nothing was too much trouble. Highly recommended.

My mum was admitted to Carrington Court on end-of-life care. I must admit that I was hesitant at placing her in care, but I need not have worried. My mum and I were greeted by a member of staff who was so welcoming and friendly all my worries just disappeared. From the very start communication with
the staff has been excellent, they are organised with information concerning mum that is relayed to me in a very professional manner, I am kept informed of any changes needed and I feel able to ask if I have any questions. All the staff at the home that I have encountered have given my mum the care that she needs and treat her with the utmost dignity and are genuinely compassionate and caring when dealing with her. It is lovely to watch how she responds to them with a smile on her face and is able to laugh and joke with them. For me, this shows that mum is feeling safe a secure within her surroundings. They are also aware of my feelings, and when I am struggling will offer me support.

My grandma is currently staying in Carrington Court, and due to her very poor health, she is permitted compassionate visits. I’ve witnessed first hand the exceptional care provided by all staff members, without exception. It’s lovely to see my grandma’s warm reaction to each member of staff; it’s clear
she feels safe and well looked after here. Thank you so much to the staff for your hard work and dedication to my grandma and the other residents.

I can’t thank all of the wonderful staff at Carrington enough for the amazing care that they have given to my grandma. Each and every member of staff ensured my grandma was looked after to a very high standard, nothing was ever to much trouble. My grandma was so happy and comfortable considering she
had been so used to being at home surrounded by her own loving family. The staff at Carrington court treated her as though she was their family which meant the world to us especially with the government restrictions. We had daily contact and regular zoom calls in which we could see our grandma's beautiful happy smile, from her favourite meals to always having her nails painted and her hair styled it was lovely to see. No matter how poorly grandma was her dignity always remained. We will be forever thankful for the support you have shown us all. Thank you all so much for your kindness, love and care.

My dad has been a resident at the home for the past 30 months and I would not hesitate to recommend this home to anyone who is looking for a home for a loved one.
The constant care and the attention given to all of the residents by each and every member staff goes far beyond the call of duty, nothing
is to much trouble for the very friendly team and they do become part of your family.
Since the coronavirus has been with us all, the home has been kept everyone safe with the high level of procedures put in place, no one has had the virus.
When we have not been able to visit I have always been kept up to date with how my dad is doing, 3 weeks ago he took a turn for the worst and we were allowed compassionate visits and to our amazement, he is at present doing great, feeding his self, out of bed in his wheelchair and it is not only due to my dad's determination, it's the constant care and dedication of all the staff.
Well done to each and every one of you, Thank you so much.

My husband was very happy on his week respite. He loved the staff and they appeared very happy with him. He actually amazed me when he came home, he was a different man, more alert, more mobile, more chatty and was better all round. He is quite happy to come and stay again.

I was very reluctant to come into care, due to health problems no choice. When I came to the door very apprehensive about what I was facing. I was met at the door by staff which I thought was a lovely gesture. Everyone very nice, made me feel most welcome. After one week feel really at home.

Carrington Court is a breath of fresh air where care homes are concerned. All staff are very attentive, friendly and genuinely caring and compassionate. Nothing is too much trouble. Everybody is smiling! My mum has been made to feel extremely welcome, and despite her complex needs, the quality of care
is outstanding. This is a very organised, well-managed home and I can't find one fault. My mum/my family are very fortunate to have Mum stay in Carrington Court.

I cannot praise Carrington Court highly enough for the care my mother is getting. Everyone is so friendly, passionate and professional. Nothing is too much trouble. There is an open door policy which is reassuring for families. We take young children to visit their great grandma and they are greeted

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.724)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.724) out of 10 for Carrington Court Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 15 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 14 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Care Home is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.724 for Carrington Court Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (147 Excellents x 5) + (18 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) + (6 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 174 Ratings = 4.724

  • b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5').

    The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Carrington Court Care Home is based on 14 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4

    • ii) 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the registered maximum number of service users in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Care Home registered for a maximum of 50 service users has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 48 registered maximum number of service users is 9.6, which has been reached with 14 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
